What's Poppin' Gourmet Popcorn
Our Little Story
What once started out as a side hustle with one small kettle and a few local festivals has over time become Windsors favorite popcorn “factory”. Over the years we have managed to upgrade our equipment, hire the right staff, lease our own building and make lots of right decisions ( as well as learn from our mistakes).
Although times may be uncertain right now, we feel that there is always room for a little popcorn in your life and we hope that when you do have the craving for something completely unique, delicious and MADE IN WINDSOR you will think of us.
Making Popcorn
The Secret to Our Success
USE THE BEST INGREDIENTS
We use only the best ingredients that we can source. The foundation of our company is our popcorn seeds. Using what we feel is the best popcorn seed around, the mushroom seed explodes into a nice round ball that holds the flavour better than traditional butterfly popcorn found in stores and movie theaters.
TURN UP THE HEAT
Using a tremendous amount of heat is one of the keys to making the perfect batch of popcorn. Our stainless steel kettles are gigantic and put out an enourmous amount of heat causing each kernel to blast into greatness.
USE YOUR SENSES
Our many years of popping corn has given us the ability to use our senses to know when we have made the perfect batch. We can see, smell, hear and most of all taste when we have popped every batch to perfection.
FINISH IT OFF PROPERLY
Once the popping process is complete, we sift the popcorn in a gigantic sifting table to eliminate any unpopped kernels (also known as Old Maids). Then we season it with what we have found is just the right amount of seasoning. From there we send it to packaging where we are now using tamper proof air tight pails which not only keep the product safe but it extends the shelf life of the popcorn exponentially.
SURROUND YOURSELF WITH GREATNESS
It’s not all about having the greatest popcorn in Windsor. It’s about surrounding yourself with people who are the best at what they do. From our cooks to our office, from our graphic designer to our web site developer we make sure we choose people who are the best at what they do and it shows. Not only do we all love our jobs but we all strive to make our small business in Windsor succeed.
